[Snow Patrol - How to Be Dead lyrics]
Please don't go crazy if I tell you the truth
No, you don't know what happened
And you never will
If you don't listen to me while
I talk to the wall this blanket is freezing
It's been out in the hall
Where you've had me for hours 'til
I'm sure what I want but darling
I want the same thing that I wanted before
So sweetheart, tell me what's up
I won't stop no way
Please keep your hands down
And stop raising your voice
It's hardly what I'd be doing if
You gave me a choice
It's a simple suggestion
Can you give me some time?
So just say yes or no
Why can't you shoulder the blame?
Cause both my shoulders are heavy from
The weight of us both you're a big boy now
So let's not talk about growth
You've not heard a single word I have said
Oh, my god
Please take it easy it can't all be my fault
I haven't made half the mistakes
That you've listed so far
Baby, let me explain something
It's all down to drugs
At least I remember taking them
And not a lot else
It seems I've stepped over lines
You've drawn again and again
But if the ecstasy's in
The wit is definitely out
Dr jekyll is wrestlin' Hyde for my pride
No, you don't know what happened
And you never will
If you don't listen to me while
I talk to the wall this blanket is freezing
It's been out in the hall
Where you've had me for hours 'til
I'm sure what I want but darling
I want the same thing that I wanted before
So sweetheart, tell me what's up
I won't stop no way
Please keep your hands down
And stop raising your voice
It's hardly what I'd be doing if
You gave me a choice
It's a simple suggestion
Can you give me some time?
So just say yes or no
Why can't you shoulder the blame?
Cause both my shoulders are heavy from
The weight of us both you're a big boy now
So let's not talk about growth
You've not heard a single word I have said
Oh, my god
Please take it easy it can't all be my fault
I haven't made half the mistakes
That you've listed so far
Baby, let me explain something
It's all down to drugs
At least I remember taking them
And not a lot else
It seems I've stepped over lines
You've drawn again and again
But if the ecstasy's in
The wit is definitely out
Dr jekyll is wrestlin' Hyde for my pride
